The Designer

For the past 10 years, Andrea Pitter has been on a mission to transform engaged women into breathtaking brides with her stunning collections of bridal ensembles. Since opening the New York City flagship of her label, Pantora Bridal, her team has gracefully served thousands of brides and bridal parties. Known for her pairing of signature classic silhouettes and modern details, Andrea is a proud fashion design graduate of the Fashion Institute &Technology. As she expands her brand to include additional brick and mortar stores, and a ready to wear collection, her commitment to ‘representing the unrepresented in mainstream bridal’ is taking center stage with notable mentions from publications such as Vogue Paris, The Knot, Brides, and Essence. With the support of her #PantoraBrides and digital #PantoraTribe of nearly 150K followers and growing, Andrea is a force and inspiration in an industry that often lacks inclusivity and representation for the independent Black design entrepreneur.

 
 
 
 

Pantora

I created Pantora not knowing what it would become. My love for fashion soon became a mission. I wanted brides to and feel seen, celebrate in the ways that felt comfortable and to wear dresses that celebrated their curves. I revisited the idea of designing ready to wear in hopes of reaching those same people, my goal has always be to see and celebrate. Being the designer of Pantora has allowed to chase joy.

TEREA

One of my many prizes after winning season 2 of Making The Cut on Amazon Prime Video was the amazing opportunity to create a cobrand with Amazon Fashion. This collaboration is special to me because it has allowed me to be both a leader and a student. TEREA is size inclusive, sizes ranging from XXS-5X, age inclusive and style inclusive. Designing merchandising in mind, these pieces effortlessly blend into anyones wardrobe allowing you to make as little or as big of an investment as you would like, they also merchandise across collections. My collaboration with Amazon Fashion is the first of its kind, thanks for following this journey.
